TEXTILE RECYCLING

TEXTILE RECYCLING Textile recycling is the process by which old clothing and other textiles are recovered for reuse or material recovery. It is the basis for the textile recycling industry. The necessary steps in the textile recycling process involve the donation, collection, sorting and processing of textiles, and then subsequent transportation to end users of used garments, rags or other recovered materials.

HISTORY OF TEXTILE RECYCLING

Textile recycling is one of the oldest and most established recycling industries in the world, yet, few people understand the recycling industry . Textiles have been recycled since the eighteenth century when the Napoleonic War caused virgin wool shortages and required that wool fibers be garneted into new yarns. Even though the textile industry has been utilizing used fibers for at least 150 years, the markets for recycled textile fiber continue to evolve.

THE PROCESS OF TEXTILE RECYCLING

Traditional sources of textile waste come from three different sources:1.fiber, yarn, and fabric processing2. sewn products manufacture3.disc Textile and cutting wastes at the manufacturing level are considered pre-consumer waste and are easier to recycle because the fibers, dyes, and finishes are known and in like-new condition.

Glossary of Technical Terms Related to Recycled Fabrics and Fibers

FOR TEXTILES TO BE RECYCLED, THERE ARE FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN NATURAL AND SYNTHETIC FIBERS. FOR NATURAL TEXTILES:1.THE INCOMING UNWEARABLE MATERIAL IS SORTED BY TYPE OF MATERIAL AND COLOR2.TEXTILES ARE THEN PULLED INTO FIBERS OR SHREDDED3.THE YARN IS THEN CLEANED AND MIXED THROUGH A CARDING PROCESS4.THEN THE YARN IS RE-SPUN AND READY FOR SUBSEQUENT USE IN WEAVING OR KNITTING.5. THEN THE YARN IS RE-SPUN AND READY FOR SUBSEQUENT USE IN WEAVING OR KNITTING.
